Can IT confirm?

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Confirming the opposite here. Network is properly separated and locked down. IoT devices do their thing while I enjoy all the benefits.
IoT devices are still tracking and reporting on you and your family.
Well not if the network is properly separated, that way they can't ever access the public internet, right?
Maybe I misunderstand but the benefits of the IOT things is to access this stuff remotely, from your phone, from anywhere.
I have some smart lighting which I control from my phone, set up timers, automation etc. It's all local though, I have no need to access it remotely. You can set up a VPN to access your home network remotely if you want to be secure, but I've got no need so it's not worth the effort. But yeah, smart/IoT doesn't have to mean can talk to the public internet!
